For some good fight scenes why not get some transcripts of the meetings when various sections left the original movement, nothing like skin and hair flying about, I doubt if you could get anything more violent. Nothing like a good barney!!!

Maybe you can add a few fight scenes. I would be willing to help the
cause. If not I make a good extra. :)

I'm actually pulling a stunt similar to this; I'm developing a
computer game based on the Adepts and Theosophy. Suffice to say, it's
not a small task. I've already been working on it for almost 3 years
now and all I have is some pretty pictures of the game engine.

Production note:
Ok... That's good for starters. So, we'll consider Iain, possibly, as
comedy director (HPB was funny, wasn't she?) -- Cass, maybe, as casting director --
and Mauri, speculatively, as story director. Now let's see them all come up
with some useful ideas that coordinate with each other. LM

To: Iain, Cass and Mauri,
I wasn't joking. I was just poking and maybe pulling your legs a bit to see
if there were any real filmmakers among us. But, if you want to keep on that
way, that's Ok, too. </:-)> BTW, since this is an American picture, we don't
use "aeroplanes." Besides, airplanes and Empire State type buildings weren't
invented yet.
